Small rounds

 I finished the two baby quilts for a friend having twins this week using the leftovers from Nephew #2's quilt.


The single circle is quilted with meandering loops and bound with Lace Elements.  The double circle is quilted with swirls and bound with a print from Kate Spain's Cuzco.


I didn't realize that taking pictures without the flash would make the quilting stand out better in the picture until after I took the picture.  I did not develop a good rhythm for uniform sized swirls, but am glad I finally tried it as an all over design.    


Originally I intended to try a different type of quilting in the circles but consulted the 5 year old style consultant and quilt photographer who thought that the swirls should continue.  





Now I just need to decide what my next project should be, a dress for the 5 year old or starting a quilt for other niece and nephew who live just a few miles away from the other two.  Politically, perhaps I should start the quilts.  Hope you are having a wonderful day.
